Etc. lyrics: "The Wall (Nothing To Prove)"

Installment #3 of the Etc. lyrics series. The words of high-school-Jon deciphered by Rose and me. We figured out most of them...I think. If you're a newer reader and aren't sure what's going on in this post, refer to Phil's first Etc. post.

I’ve been the one up on the wall
I’ve been the one that’s looking down
Been the one to push you off
I’ve been the one whose been knocked down
I’ve been the one whose looking back up at the wall
I’ve been the one whose all alone
I’ve built my wall then walked away
Got nothing to prove to you, sir
Got nothing to prove to you, sir
And you’re not the only person
To give me revelation that I’m not the perfect person
don’t fit your expectations
I’m just trying to live
Just trying to be just who I am
I won’t say that I can’t fall
‘cause I know that I can
And I got nothing to prove
Got nothing to prove to you
‘cause I’m not the one
I’m not the one to save you
When it’s only me
It’s only me
It’s only nothing that you can't do
Got nothing to prove to you
Got nothing to prove to you
Don’t judge me yet
Don’t judge now
Don’t judge me by the things I say
All the stupid things I do
Don’t judge me yet
Don’t judge me now
Don’t judge me by the clothes I wear
Or my personality
You're gonna have to step inside
There’s so much more to me
There’s so much more to me
And I got nothing to prove
Got nothing to prove to you
‘cause I’m not the to who save you
When it’s only me
It’s only me
It’s only nothing that you can't do
Got nothing to prove
And I can’t justify my existence based on reactions
And persistence
Just sit around and fall
And hit brick walls
Brick walls
Yeah
[50-second instrumental ending...woo]
